Gothic Ancient Mariner

Yes, The Rime of The Ancient Mariner can be considered a gothic poem. The storytelling session takes place at a wedding feast a splash of romance to start it off. The sea of ice and dreadful sounds with no life in sight is the first mention of what may be ghost. The mariner killing the bird doomed the men with a curse. I believe being at sea with no water to drink would be one of the worst things ever. He also uses a considerable amount of words that assume impending doom. Of course the ghost ship with a dead crew is the most gothic point of the poem, and would be a sight to see.
